Extra Profile Fields Page

This is the 3.5.x version of Zachery's hack by the same name. (linkage)


3.6.0 version: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=123253


This hack will add an extra page to the User CP. This area can be used for extra profile fields that for one reason or another you would like to split from the main list.

Personally, I use this page for PC specs, but it can also be used for other specs as well (e.g. cars). I have the specs in a dropdown list under the user title in each user's post, as well as in their profile page, but that's another hack You can see my 3.0.x hack for that here, and the 3.5.x hack for it here.

Here's some examples of how I use this hack (with the Add-On hack, Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts):

NOTE: The above 2 links show the results of another hack I did that's based upon this one. In otherwords, this hack doesn't add dropdowns in posts, and doesn't hack the member page to display the extra options in a new area. For that, install the Add-On hack, Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts.

# of plugin hooks: 1
# of php page edits: 3 (or 4)
# of new templates: 1
# of template edits: 1
# of new phrases: 2

The "successfully saved" and extra option search are not tested, but they should both work.

Don't forget to hit INSTALL!.

I've got a problem with this...

When you use radio buttons, it all looks nice. When you use a single line, it all looks nice. However, when you use the select from drop down list, it all gets screwed up. It says the title in the right spot. Says the description in the right spot. Then it says the title again followed by a semi colon, and the actual selector is all the way on the right. O_o

Could you please tell me how to fix this. If you need a screenshot, please ask.

Nevermind- I figured it out.

Did you use the product install or the manual install? Did you change it in every location or just one?

I did it manually in the admin cp. I copied all the codes into ms works and did a find replace all for extra to biography.

Don't understand what you mean.

Which part exactly do you mean? Are you using the manual install (just removed) or the product install?

Is this an error you are getting somewhere?

Thanks for the update but could you fix up the bug if a member has not updated their extra profile fields while in profile view page? It still shows up as blank and is supposed to say "N/A".
